Having Hair In Your Ear Is A Warning Sign! What Does It Mean?

According to a recent study, there is a connection between the hair in your ear canal and heart attacks! Yes, it sounds strange, but it has been confirmed by several studies!

The study included 215 Indian patients and showed that ear hair prevalence advances with age. As the authors wrote “A significant difference was also observed between men with and without CAD in the presence of ear-canal hair with an age matched group.”

In 2006. Edston E. published his study in the American Journal of Forensic Medical Pathology. He scrutinized nearly 500 autopsies in terms of BMI, spleen weight, ear hair, earlobe crease, cause of death, baldness, thickness of abdominal fat and other characteristics. “It was found that ELC (earlobe crease) was strongly correlated with CAD in both men and women (P < 0.0001) but with sudden cardiac death (SCD) only in men (P < 0.04).”

And, while some experts are blaming testosterone supplements as the major cause of ear canal hair and heart attacks, this is probably a typical characteristic of the aging process and people can die from heart attacks due to old age and obesity, not just ear canal hair.
